Gourmia - Costco Exclusive 7 Quart Air Fryer (Discontinued)

I have the 7qt Gourmia from Costco. I'm happy with it. This newer/larger one has a window, which should come in handy.

I bought the 7 quart Gourmia air fryer from Costco. It works great but isn’t big enough for my family of five and I was sick of cooking in batches like a short order cook. That said, I do think Costco does a decent job vetting brands overall.  When I came across [this air fryer comparison spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y4PR6GCz-Lk5mWX1LUzo-3kChRBv302vSv5HZFB5K1c/edit?gid=1554522955#gid=1554522955) on Reddit, I was happy to see that Gourmia actually has tons of options. I ended up GTF7460 because the kicker for me was that it can fit a 12-inch freezer pizza. I like that my teen son can make himself a late-night snack without heating up my whole house with the oven.

I have the older Costco Gourmia. I’ve started making beef jerky. It has a dehydrator setting 135°-170°F. Works great with steak you forgot about in your freezer.

I like my big basket one from Costco. It’s an air fryer, that’s what I want it to do, not have 8 shelves and French doors.

Gourmia

I have a Gourmia 7-qt one and a little tiny Phillips. Both are excellent, but I hated the larger Phillips one I tried. Go figure. This is in Canada - Indian models may be very different!

I bought the 7qt one originally in September of 2023 and just saw this at my Costco this past October (2024). I picked one up and will try it. It does seem to be better since it does have more surface area (less height, but thats fine) as well as individual adjustments for time and temperature. The window and light are also nice included features as well. TLDR; 8qt Gourmia >>> 7qt Gourmia

Never tried the vortex but my 7qt gourmia cooks at the same speed as my Ninja 11qt Megazone

I bought the older 7 quart a couple years ago at Costco when it was on sale for the same price and it broke within a year. When I went to return it at Costco, the return guy told me his broke within a couple months as well. He mentioned that I’m not the first person that he accepted a return on those air fryers. I personally wouldn’t recommend it, but maybe they improve the design on these air fryers or my Costco just got a bad batch of them.

I have a gourmia that I got from Costco. It's good. My parents recently got a Phillips one that's a bit smaller but is much better.

You may be right. For additional context, the gourmia one I have was bought and I use it in the US. The phillips one my parents got and use is purchased from India.
